Yes. They have cells, they have seeds to reproduce, and they respond to environment. Rotting is an example of an apple developing (although it is dying), using energy, and responding to the environment.
The energy released is used for assembly of actin filament with myosin head. when myosin is attached to ATP its heads cannot bind to actin and therefore muscle will remain in relaxed form. However during muscle contraction an enzyme referred to as ATPase hydrolyses ATP to ADP and organic phosphate in the process releasing energy. The energy released changes the position of head of myosin which facilatate its binding with actin. Myosin moves towards m-line dragging actin along with it reducing the length of sarcomere leading to muscle contraction.
It would be D because would be small and you wouldn't feel it. For answer A, the scientist could feel it. For answer B, you can kind of feel it or feel it. For C, It can definitely feel it. So the answer would be d.
